Most Rewatchable Movies

I very rarely watch a movie more than once,  but here's a few i can remember,

Goodfellas

Joe Dirt

Shawshank Redemption

Uncle Buck

Terminator

Saving Private Ryan

Princess Bride

American Pie

9 1/2 weeks

 
Shawshank Redemption is the winner, hands down.  How many of us own the movie on DVD, yet never pop it in because if you scroll through TV and it's on....you watch it regardless of where it's at?

My other personal favorite rewatches, I'll be adding to this I'm sure and many will hate this list:

Fight Club

The Big Lebowski

Terminator 2

Donnie Darko

Butterfly Effect

Basic

The Dark Knight

Empire Strikes Back

Revenge of the Sitb

 
Shawshank Redemption

Caddyshack

Groundhog Day

The Internship

Lord of the Rings Trilogy

Tombstone

Wreck It Ralph (This one would definitely be for my kids, I can honestly say that it's a good movie)

I'm sure that there are more, I'm just drawing a blank right now. 

 
Lots of good movies listed and I want to discuss one of my favorite genres, the caper/heist movie.  I love these types of movies.  I like the comic implausibility of them.  I bring this up because I was watching one of my favorites last night The Thomas Crown Affair.  I had to turn it off or I would have been up till midnight watching it. 

Some of My favorites 

Ocean's 11 and 12

The Italian Job

Entrapment

The Bank Job a good British made film supposedly based on fact. 

The Score 

 
I've never understood re-watching movies. You already know what's going to happen.....

Other than Christmas Vacation (TRADITION!), and cartoons my kids watch, I don't know that I've ever sat down and re-watched a movie.

Ocean's 11 is a good pick. I didn't like 12 much personally but 11 is a great rewatch.

I agree, it is not even close to as good, but it is way better than the 3rd one.

Serenity

Bachelor Party

16 Candles

Shawshank

Breakfast Club

The Usual Suspects

Elf

American History X

Training Day

Momento

Goodfellas

Casino

Lots of road time so thank you guys for giving me something to think about!

Because re-watching an excellent movie is much better than watching a mediocre movie for the first time :dunno

Sure some movies don't lend themselves well to re-watching (who dunnits, mystery/suspense...) because you know what's coming but a well made action, comedy, drama, sci-fi.....why not.

Another terrible movie that I love watching whenever it is on....wait for it.....Starship Troopers.

IDK why but I love that movie.
